I have been thinking on the philosophy of this subject, what a difference it makes when you encompose this! True we all do have a have a choice.
it’s all in the way we see what choices we have. We can choose to rejoice and see the best of the sad things that happen in our lives, or spend the rest of it feeling sorry for what we have lost!
I will forever be greatfull for the good things, and not waste anytime on dwelling on the sad things!
THank you for the reminder…

Hi my dears.
Yes I agree that we claim our own power; when a partner leaves we can choose how to react….we can take responsibility that we may have influenced their decision/driven them away…and choose to live happily without them, or even to win them back if that is what we and they want.
This is the same premise that I teach my Bi-Aura students - that we choose how to live our lives and how to react to everything, even what to think - and that changing our habits and thoughts changes our lives, and it is very empowering.
I love the blog.

Thanks for visiting and offering the contra view. It took a while for me to get my head round this one too, but ultimately my view is that embracing this concept leads to empowerment and personal responsibility. We claim our own power and don’t give it up to others.

Some have no choice,and have to live with the choice of others, what when a partner leaves and goes of with someone else,what choice do they have then? their life then is someone elses choice!

The premise is that we always have a choice, and that we ourselves are products of those choices. We choose whether to live alone, share our lives with others, the work we do etc. Our values - the things that are important to us, influence our choices of course - and can set a course for us - being married, having children, deciding to care for others etc. Or we can walk away from this if we choose to - we always have a choice.

Yes I think this is mainly true, I do believe for the most part we reap what we sow.
If we lived alone and only had ourself to consider, our choices would be much easier to make
I also think we change so much as we get older and often the decisions we make when young we have to live with
